Every year, there are two debates each term and those teams which win both enter the regional and levels finals. In the 2017-2018 Term 2 Competition, the completion deadline for Round 1 is Friday 2 March and for Round 2 it's Friday 13 April. Those teams in the regional and levels finals need to complete their debate by the deadline of Friday 18 May 2018. Teams can schedule each debate at a time which suits both coaches to avoid some of the busy times in their school calendars.

Trophies are awarded to Champion and 1st Runner-up teams at all regional and levels finals each term. There are also Grand Finals in May for teams in different divisions, regions and sections.

As well, there are debating, presentation and adjudication workshops for students and teachers taking place in 2017-2018 Term 2, similar to the previous year, where over 1,200 students and teachers participated in the eleven workshops.

If you'd like to enter a junior, middle and/or senior team in the 2017-2018 Term 2 Competition, send an email to the Competition Coordinator, Stan Dyer at hkssdebating@gmail.com.
